Angry Salah and a mystery player

Few are the players who have been within the Liverpool environment and who can boast to have had better statistics or better earnings than the Egyptian star, Mohamed Salah holds at the moment with the club, but this very particular situation has indeed come to happen at some point, more specifically during the years of 2011 and 2013 with the euphoria caused by the winger Jordon Ibe.

This English player originally from London had a very promising spell with the Reds, and it was not for less if Jordon had been one of the most outstanding pieces of the youth team of those years, getting to play very soon some games with the team that left a good feeling that interesting things could be done with this homegrown player who had everything to succeed being an element formed in the institution.

Unfortunately his ups and downs and a hard fight against depression recently led this player to lower level competitions, reappearing Jordon Ibe in the National League with the Ebbsfleet United team, being for many an unexpected surprise to see this player in this type of leagues when his past was promising, to the point of being a good prospect for the middle and offensive sector of the Reds, quickly surprised in turn that income of money that until before his return to the courts in this 2024 was just over 12 million pounds sterling.

At 28 years of age and with a past so wasted that he played more than a hundred games in the Premier League, Jordon Ibe begins a new stage within the National League, a club that trusts in his abilities and experience as a professional player, which he carried several years ago, perhaps with the hope that he would be in the future what Mohamed Salah is today for the institution, not being able to be so by becoming another star who could never shine in the Reds.

It seems that Jordon Ibe will have only 14 more games of the season to show why he has signed with this institution, being a hard task for the Englishman since his club is in the last three places of the general table with only 31 units over the 77 that the leader Chesterfield has, showing that his ability may not be like Salah's with the ball, but that of a great athlete that despite the difficulties of health continues forward in search of continuing with a dream that has been half fulfilled.
